Hi Evan, were you able to get a preapproval letter from your lender?

Is it a good idea to send them a no pressure letter in the mail proposing a conversation to possibly to solve there issue?

This works best if you're going to have a balloon payment within your exchange window. 3.

The clients I know who have done this have hired a tax attorney to write a legal opinion letter.

I recently listened to a real estate rookie podcast in which the new investor was looking for a similar property and mailed out letters to specific properties in a specific neighborhood in order to find off market deals. 

Is there a balloon payment?  

HCD sent letter stating that was not allowed.  

Loan is amortized over 20 years with a 10-year balloon.5.

Let me know if you have any questions or need a pre-approval letter.

If you put good processes in place and follow them to the letter, you are going to avoid 97% of all problems.
